Administrative penalties imposed on enterprises refer to legal sanctions enforced by administrative authorities against businesses that violate administrative laws and regulations. Specifically:
-
The existence of illegal activities is a prerequisite for administrative penalties, which may include but are not limited to violations of market supervision regulations, failure to obtain required approvals or permits according to relevant laws and regulations, tax evasion, and breaches of environmental protection laws.
-
The types of administrative sanctions depend on the nature and severity of the illegal activities. Common administrative penalties include warnings, fines, confiscation of illegal gains or property, orders to suspend production or business operations, and temporary suspension or revocation of licenses or permits.
-
After receiving administrative penalties, enterprises may not only suffer direct economic losses but also face indirect consequences such as reputational damage and credit rating downgrades.
CnOpenData has matched various types of enterprise administrative penalty data with lists of listed companies and their subsidiaries, obtaining administrative penalty information for listed companies and subsidiaries in six areas: taxation, intellectual property, disciplinary actions within the Party, price violations, labor disputes, and fund violations. Among these, tax administrative penalties adopted a matching method of [company name + fiscal year], while other types used a [company name] matching approach, aiming to support relevant research.
